Muffler Brothers

After seeing Christopher R’s rating here on Unilocal (along with very positive reviews on a site that sounds sort of like giggling), I called them.
I explained that my 2003 Subaru WRX sounded like there was an exhaust leak, and asked if they could take a look at it. There was no hesitation on their end — «bring it on in.»
Muffler Brothers made it quick, easy, and relatively painless. Once I got to their shop, there was no waiting. They had me pull my car up onto a lift, checked out my car, and found the source of the exhaust noise. It turns out that it was not a blown catalytic converter (as the tech had originally suspected). Instead, it was just a corroded exhaust pipe near the middle of my car.
I deliberately chose Muffler Brothers rather than a «big name» shop, out of reluctance to pay «big name» overhead & prices. My trust was apparently well placed. They made NO attempt to «upsell» me, offering hundreds of dollars of unnecessary work. Instead, I had my car back in less than half an hour, having been charged exactly the estimated amount — about $ 60 for the repair.
Very impressive. I’ll be back.

Muffler Brothers were very nice and upfront with their pricing. I would certainly recommend them.
